Chapter 81: 078 Reborn (6k)
 

The warehouse, where golden sunlight quietly cast through the side window.

In the beam of light, rotating dust flitted about like tiny insects.

Off to the side, Bai Xiao sat silently in a chair by the window, waiting.

Tap tap tap…

Down the corridor, the footsteps of canvas shoes grew louder and closer.

Turning his head, he saw Chen Liao in black robes walking briskly towards him.

In his hand was a palm-sized square metal box.

“Catch.”

The box was tossed over, and Bai Xiao caught it mid-air with his hand.

Surprisingly light, like wood.

It was not an iron box, but one made of aluminum.

He looked up at Chen Liao.

Chen Liao nodded, indicating for Bai Xiao to open it and take a look.

Bai Xiao rubbed his fingers over the somewhat smooth surface of the box and flipped it open. Instantly, a very strong medicinal fragrance hit his nose.

Mixed within this medicinal scent seemed to be a trace of bloodiness.

Upon closer inspection, inside the aluminum box was a layer of soft lining, the white fluff depressed in the center, snugly holding an eyeball-sized, rounded elixir. Its body was a bright red with swirling black patterns on it.

“This is the Fierce Bird Bone Changing Pill?”

“Catch.” Curiously, Bai Xiao extended his hand and pinched the elixir.

However, he quickly found that the Fierce Bird Bone Changing Pill was coated with a semi-transparent, gelatinous film, likely meant to prevent the leakage of its potency.

“It does seem very precious indeed…”

Bai Xiao examined the pill, murmuring to himself.

“Of course, it's precious. It's crafted with many extremely rare and important medicinal ingredients, some of which you couldn't find anywhere in the world. For the younger generation of disciples, an elixir that can enhance innate talent is the most valuable. Of course, for us old timers, it's not much use. What we need are other ointments and pills…”

Chen Liao smiled lightly.

He subtly mentioned that the Fierce Bird Sect had other valuable things.

Apparently, he wanted to use this to spur Bai Xiao's ambition.

“Master Chen, how should I use this Fierce Bird Bone Changing Pill?”

After pondering for a moment, Bai Xiao asked the crucial question.

“Pour a barrel of lukewarm water in a wooden tub, then fully immerse yourself in it, and lastly, consume the Fierce Bird Bone Changing Pill,” Chen Liao continued, “Moreover, you need to undertake the breakthrough bath in the secret room where the Fierce Bird Boxing Manual is kept, always practicing visualization. In this way, there might be extraordinary effects…

“I'll wait outside the secret room for you. You can call me at any time.”

After going over the precautions, the two arrived at the Boxing Manual Visualization Room.

Five minutes later.

In the pitch-black secret room, Bai Xiao was submerged in the water, his gaze fixed ahead. The chaotic lines on the walls slowly began to glow.

“Let's begin…”

He picked up the Fierce Bird Bone Changing Pill, took a deep breath, and placed it directly into his mouth. With a slight chew, he broke the coating, and a bitter, liquid substance dissolved immediately upon entry, trailing down his mouth and esophagus, reaching his stomach.

Bai Xiao swallowed the coating as well, fixing his gaze straight ahead.

“Pure heart, activate!”

His entire focus intensified, as he resumed the Boxing Manual Visualization of the Fierce Bird Fist, where chaotic lines slowly started to converge.

They seemed to be forming another glowing figure, making martial arts movements.

“This feeling…”

Suddenly, Bai Xiao felt an unprecedented coolness in his torso. From his lower abdomen, a warm liquid began to spread to every corner of his body. It invisibly penetrated his organs, bones, muscles, and meridians, reaching almost every spot.

It was the Fierce Bird Bone Changing Pill, its potency steadily releasing.

Wave after wave of coolness cycled through him like the tide.

“Thump… thump thump… thump thump thump…”

Bai Xiao could feel his heartbeat increasing in speed, vibrating his entire body like the beating of a drum, creating waves of resonance. His breathing grew labored as the cooling sensation from the pill turned fiery hot.

“Sizzle sizzle sizzle…”

A faint sound, like the sizzling of meat and fat roasting, emerged from within his body. Beads of sweat appeared on Bai Xiao's forehead; his skin turned reddish, and muscles at various places rhythmically contracted.

At this moment, he felt as if a furnace inside him was burning wood, endlessly roasting his inner tissues.

His body temperature was rising rapidly. If he hadn't been soaking in the water, Bai Xiao might have fainted from the heat at any moment.

“Chirp…”

With a blurred vision, he suddenly heard a faint bird call from within his body. Listening more carefully, the call grew louder, fierce, and brutal. Chirp! It was like thunder exploding, resonating within Bai Xiao's skull, with only the sound of the Fierce Bird echoing in his ears, dominating his mind.

In front of him, the slowly gathering martial arts movements…

began accelerating as if fast-forwarding.

Double-speed, triple-speed, and finally, the glowing figure performing martial arts became frenetic, moving at unbelievable speeds.

Bang!

A punch hit Bai Xiao's forehead, exploding into a memory imprint.

The eighth martial arts movement, understood!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Another glowing figure sprang from the pattern swiftly, dancing hands and feet, completing the martial arts routine in an instant, then another punch!

Bang!

The ninth, understood!

Next was the tenth!

But bizarrely, some glowing lines on the entire pattern rapidly dimmed, turning into an inky black that sent shivers down the spine.

Thump thump… thump thump…
